If spec_helper existed, we could have a smaller rspec configuration that did not depend on rails. However, without it, we would need the spec to load the unit under test as well as rspec and its configuration. It seems the pattern is to load rails_helper in all specs in order to configure rspec while also getting rails' autoloading.

The
Rails.loggerdouble (viaas_null_object) is leaking across tests. It is pulled from::Railsand set as::Graphiti.loggerwhich, as a constant, persists across specs.This resets Graphiti's config after the railtie specs which stub on it.
Also, the railtie test can't run without configuring rspec (via some helpers) and loading the Railtie under test. Ideally we'd use a slimmed-down spec_helper for configuring just rspec (without rails). However, that doesn't already exist, and we'd need some form of autoloading anyway; so for the time being we just use the existing rails_helper.
